“We do expect our unions, our civilian non-police unions, to have a similar level of sacrifice,” said Detroit Chief Financial Officer Jack Martin.

Thursday’s vote came shortly before Gov. Rick Snyder was set to host a round table discussion on Detroit’s budget crisis.

The governor has less than a month to decide whether the state will appoint an emergency manager to oversee Detroit’s financials recovery. Detroit State Senator Morris Hood III says help is needed — but not in the form of a takeover.

“As a bulldozer effect, or just coming in and forcing your way in instead of partnershipping up and coming in and helping,” Hood said. “I think that’s one of the push-backs that you’re gonna have. It doesn’t seem as though you’re coming in to help — it’s coming in to take over.”
